Pitch Makeover

Pitch Makeover

We’re taking the concept of a fashion makeover and applying it to startup pitches. Entrepreneurs pitch, we talk, and then we share what they should keep, delete, and, possibly, more importantly, add to their pitch. Our goal: help #morevoices, as Rihanna says, shine bright like the diamonds that they are. Are you ready for your pitch makeover?
